BeMS
The BeMS Scheme is an award-winning
business support project that has been designed to help businesses
deliver more sustainable profits whilst reducing their environmental
impact. It provides a straightforward and low cost approach
to environmental management and is an ideal first step for
busy managers new to this subject.
Guided by an interactive CD-ROM, companies joining BEMS are
helped to systematically assess and reduce the environmental
impact of their actions - and realise the associated financial
benefits. The CD-ROM has been designed to align closely with
the initial stages of nationally recognised management systems
such as ISO14001 and EMAS.
Members receive assistance and training from BEMS and its
network of experts, enabling them to collect data and set
realistic targets to reduce waste production and increase
energy and resource efficiency. Training in environmental
management is delivered through:
